Chapter 20: The Reddened Skyline
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
"What's going on? What's going on? Earthquake? What happened? ”
The huge collision explosion and the shaking of the earth woke Xia Aya from her sleep, and in a panic and confusion, Xia Aya rolled herself into a quilt made of wool, and then was frightened by the shock, and rolled to the ground at once, hiding under the bed and shivering.

The sound of the impact explosion was followed by a continuous crackling sound, like the sound of wood burning into charcoal and then breaking, accompanied by a constant small vibration, much less than the sudden eruption just now, like an aftershock after a violent earthquake.
"What's going on? Is there an earthquake in this world? Feeling that the tremor had decreased a lot, Xia Aya, who was hiding under the bed, breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed her eyes, and yawned.
"Really, if there is an earthquake, it will be an earthquake during the day, and suddenly it will come at night, it will really disturb our sleep......
Well, if you can say this kind of thing, it is estimated that Xia Aya is still in a state of not waking up.
Sure enough, when she was about to climb back into bed and go back to sleep again, she suddenly had a spirit, and her confused eyes finally reacted, and she suddenly pulled off the quilt wrapped around her body, and was scared into a cold sweat.
"What? There was an earthquake just now? woc? What the heck? I still want to sleep after the earthquake? And with such a strong earthquake, my house didn't collapse, should I say that the quality is good, or does this setting not exist in the MC at all......"
Feeling helpless for her natural stupidity at some moments, Xia Aya quickly got up from the bed, put her clothes on her body indiscriminately, and ran outside to check if there were any cracks or gaps in the house without even bothering to pack up the quilt.
After turning around the matchbox he made three times inside and out, and didn't find any damage, Xia Aya breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly said that MC is MC, if it was placed on the earth with such a strong earthquake, the house would have collapsed a long time ago, and there is not even a sign of damage here......
Ahem, if Xia Aya can bring this technology to the earth, it is estimated that in less than a year, she will be able to buy and buy casually and never eat soil again.
"Whew" out of a breath, Xia Aya looked at the moon above her head that had just reached the middle, and couldn't help but circle her hair on her shoulders in distress...... If she were to go back to bed and go to bed, she would definitely not be able to sleep, but if she didn't sleep now, she would definitely be sleepy during the day......
And, what can I do now if I don't sleep? Going out on an intimate date with zombies?
"Huh?"
Thinking of zombies, Xia Aya suddenly noticed that something was wrong.
"What about zombies? What about Xiaobai? Why didn't you see even a monster? ”
Confused, Xia Aya pushed open the fence gate and circled around the cobblestone wall she had built, but found no trace of a single monster.
Whether it's spiders and chirping monsters, or undead creatures like white zombies, or witches she hasn't met yet......
Obviously, every morning when I get up, I can hear the "whooping" of at least a hundred zombies outside starting to set themselves on fire, and I can get one or two sets of carrion pieces effortlessly when I go out......
These zombies all gather around Xia Aya's hut at night towards the light source, and if she wakes up from a dream at night, Xia Aya can occasionally see the landscape outside that can be called the zombie sea.
But tonight, why aren't there any zombies?
Xia Aya looked at the moon, it was neither a full moon nor a lunar eclipse, nor was it the legendary blood moon where demons danced wildly and a hundred ghosts walked nocturnally, how could it be so abnormal?
And she looked around in the moonlight, but found no trace of other lone monsters.
"What the hell happened today...... First, there was a sudden earthquake, and then a zombie that disappeared inexplicably...... What happens after an earthquake? The Great Rift Valley? Or were the zombies scared away by the earthquake? ”
Somewhat confused, Xia Aya decided to climb onto the roof of the villagers' hut to take a look, after all, if she stood high and saw far away, she might be able to find out the reason for these strange events that happened tonight.
Natsuya's matchbox was built next to the ruined village, and the pure water she needed every day Natsuya still needed to fetch it from the village's well, so it couldn't be too far from the village.
As a precaution, he brought all his equipment and weapons and torches with him, and quickly ran to a hut with a ladder on the edge of the wall.
Xia Aya had been on the roof to observe the surrounding terrain before, and the ladders built at that time Xia Aya didn't remove them because she was troublesome, but she didn't expect them to come in handy now.
Climbing onto the roof, Xia Aya stood up tremblingly and looked around with the help of the moonlight......
"That'...... What's that......"
Perhaps because she was too surprised, Xia Aya's voice trembled a little, her eyes were fixed on the location in the south, and there was some unusual light in the sky blocked by a mountain bag......
"It's ...... Firelight? ”
The bright red and yellow light floats outside the skyline, occasionally shaking irregularly, flickering in and out.
This scene is familiar to Natsu Aya, when she was still living on Earth, there was a big fire accident about a few kilometers away from where she lived, and that accident also happened at night.
At that time, because the floor where Xia Aya lived was not very high, her vision was perfectly blocked by the tall building opposite, and she could only see a spectacular red light coming out of the sky, as if the morning sun was about to rise, dyeing the sky red.
And now Xia Aya sees the same scene as she did at the beginning.
"Could it be that there is a fire somewhere? Was it the exposed lava that set the woods on fire? ”
Xia Aya guessed in her heart, but she immediately denied herself, magma can only cause fires in the woods to be a small area, this is different from the earth, if the forest fire on the earth is not extinguished by firefighters, it may even burn the entire mountain forest.
But the trees in the MC are all separated, even if it is a forest, each tree is at least two or three blocks apart, that is, two or three meters, even if the magma ignites the trees, it will spread at most four or five, and it is impossible to emit such a large fire.
What exactly is the reason for that?
Volcanic eruptions? Is there really a volcano in the MC world?
But then again, what happened just now really looks like a sign of a volcanic eruption. First there was a strong earthquake, and then there was a fire that rose into the sky...... If it was a volcanic eruption, would it spew out the ore or something like that? It's raining ore or something, and it's exciting to think about it......
In other words, Xia Aya now finally understands why there are no monsters next to her house today...... Monsters have phototaxis, and because they have a more dazzling light on the other side of the mountain, the monsters naturally gather in that direction.
Xia Aya looked at the equipment on her body, and couldn't help pouting, what to coax, no matter what it is, just take a look.
